Hello. I am going to start training soon for my first half marathon. I aim to run for 4 mins and walk for a minute. Does anyone know of any ladies watches in either the UK or Ireland who can repeatedly vibrate every 4 mins and every minute throughout the race? Thanks 😄

I think most Garmin watches will allow you to do that.  My wife has set up workouts that you program ahead of time to notify you either every set distance or every set time interval.  You just need to set it ahead of time.

Hi, I use Apple Watch which can do exactly this (when using the native Apple workout app and then syncing to Strava to record an activity - I don't use the Strava AW app for the actual recording). However, it depends on what phone you're using - it makes sense pretty much only if you use an iPhone.

Thanks so much for your reply but I use an android phone. Hopefully there will be an android equivalent? ⭐️✨️
